> ### Tips in Taking a Video

> > Take a video so that a high compression rate can be obtained.

> > Choose a simple background. (If the background is complicated, the video file becomes large.

> > Put your video camera on a tripod to keep it steady and avoid a moving background.

> > Turn the AGC (automatic gain control) or AE (automatic exposure) off in order to stabilize the luminance of the background for the duration of the video.

> > Take a video suitable for using DragMotion For a DragMotion movie, in which an object in the movie moves, avoid panning or zooming since these will distort the movement and make it more difficult to follow.

> ### Directory management

> > DRAGRI-Lite generates files in the following directories: (C:\Program Files\DRAGRI-Lite is the installation directory)

> > C:\Program Files\DRAGRI-Lite\tmp\

> >   Newly captured video clips (nv(Number).avi) and files for series of images (vn(Number).txt) are saved here. You can delete the video files after generating the Web page.

> > C:\Program Files\DRAGRI-Lite\pages\

> >   Contents are stored here. The directory is specified by pressing [Config.] button.
> >   Deleted contents are moved in the subdirectory 'trash'.

> > When the disk is full, please delete unnecessary files with the Explorer.
